When Men are Taken for Shopping

I'm just resting my eyes! Hilarious photographs show how men REALLY feel when you take them shopping

Go into any High Street shop at the weekend and you're likely to see a line of men waiting outside the changing room looking very bored.
In fact, the sight has become so ubiquitous that social media users have been sharing hilarious photographs showing just how miserable husbands and boyfriends look as they wait for their other halves. 
Many use the opportunity to have a nap, while others turn to their phones for entertainment as they wait for their partners to finish shopping - as these photos shared on Reddit show.
Like father, like son: One snap shows this pair fast asleep as they wait for the mother to finish shopping 
Get me out of here: One man takes to perching next to a lingerie display while waiting for his partner 
Dozing off: Meanwhile, this shopper does not look thrilled to have been dragged to the shops 
Just resting my eyes: Another man is pictured waiting among the shoe racks in one shop 
A number of the men take advantage of the array of comfortable chairs on offer in shops.
Leather armchairs seem to be a favourite, while one man makes use of an unusual round basket chair to take a snooze.
Meanwhile one adorable snap shows a father and son both fast asleep as they wait for the mother to finish shopping. 
Many of the men are tasked with looking after the shopping bags, while others can be seen clutching drinks bought from the fast food shop. 
Can't bear it: It looks like this man is running out of patience - but at least he's got somewhere to sit 
I need a lie down: This man seems rather worn out after being dragged around the shops 
Joint despair: One snap shows not one but two men looking bored as they wait around - with one resorting to sitting on the floor 
Just testing it out: Another partner is taking advantage of the sofa on display in this shop 
Having a snooze: The funny snaps show an array of chairs on offer for men who want to have a rest
For some, it all seems a bit too much for them to take. One snap shows a distraught shopper with his head in his hands as he resorts to perching on a mannequin stand.
And one man is so worn out by a day of shopping that he needs to have a lie down - in the middle of the shopping centre.  
A hilarious social media account Miserable Men of Instagram also captures the despair of husbands and boyfriends as they trail after their other halves.
The humorous feed has amassed more than 70,000 followers after sharing pictures of men outside changing rooms and sulking in shop windows. 
Snore! This shopper has found a very comfortable chair to have a nap in as he waits for his partner 
What is that? One man, who is wearing a rather fetching pink T-shirt, is looking rather confused - perhaps at something his wife is trying on 
Looking after the bags: This man has been tasked with keeping an eye on the new purchases - not that he's doing a very good job 
Kicking back: This man is showing absolutely no interest in the high heels next to him 
Had quite enough: A distraught shopper is seen with his head in his hands as he resorts to perching on a mannequin stand to take the weight off his weary legs
A typical scene: A bored man makes use of the soft furnishings in a bag shop as he kills time on his phone in this photo shared on Miserable Men of Instagram 
Back against the wall: This chap is pictured having a snooze as he waits outside a changing room  
In one of the photos shared on the feed, one man stares blankly into his phone as he sits alone among accessories. 
An unhappy shopper appears to be overcome with boredom as he guards his partner's bags  - one in a fetching bright pink - in a shoe store. He rubs his eyes, almost as though he's wiping away a tear of frustration.
Meanwhile a clothes shop becomes too much to bear for one gentlemen who appears to have nodded off in his chair amid women's fashions hanging from rails around him.
Similarly a man in a flat cap and boots closes his eyes while shopping in a snow sports shop, no doubt dreaming he was in the Alps.

Clueless: A man looks bewildered as his co-shopper asks for advice on a pair of brightly coloured trousers 
Can't bear it: A man looks extremely grumpy as he retreats to the back of this toy shop 
Teaming up? At least these two miserable men have one another to keep each other company
Down and out: It's all become a bit much for this man who had collapsed onto one of the sofas in the store
Not hiding his feelings: This elderly gentlemen isn't trying to disguise the fact he is not enjoying himself 
Like father like son: It looks like a hate for shopping runs in the family with these two men
Not a fan: Looks like this boy's hate for shopping has started at a young age as he collapses in a shop
Not amused: This man struggles to raise a smile as two Bichon Frises wait patiently on his lap 
Impatient: This man is clearly tired of waiting for his fellow shopper as he photobombs a young girl
Sleepy: It looks as though this man is ready to clamber right into this inviting looking bed 
Given up: Short of somewhere to sit this man decided to camp out on the shop floor until his other half is done 
Bored are you? This man can't hold in an escaping yawn as he keeps hold of several purchases 
Join the queue: One shop window sees a whole group of men wait impatiently for their fellow shoppers
Couldn't give a hoot! This reluctant shopper takes the opportunity to relax on a public bench 
Solidarity: These desperate men manage to find something to keep them entertained in the mall
Sticking together: These guys find the perfect location to put their feet up while they wait

Cause for argument: This couple appear to be having a disagreement in a shopping centre
